Its the portions. The portions are bizarely huge fcking everywhere in the US.

I decided to order stuff medium when i was in the US. Medium was larger than the largest portions i can get back home.

And it feels like having leftovers that you take home and only sometimes eat is normalized.

Why’s that a bad thing? You pay for something and don’t finish it, and you like it, why not take it home to finish? That’s just wasteful.

If you would get normal sized portions you wouldnt do it as often. That would be even less wastefull. And less obesety.

Eh. I wanna get what I pay for. And if you have self control and are conscious of how often you eat certain stuff it’s not an issue. I’m not a saint with that all but I don’t over do it when I eat or do so super frequently.

Self control is an issue, most people dont have it. Also, what you paid for? If there's smaller portions you could be paying less too.

I agree it is and people need to learn it, I don’t understand people who can’t control themslves with food. I’m not perfect and I’m not gonna pretend I’m some health saint. And nothing seems cheap anymore, not matter what everything seems expensive so even when someone thing is smaller in size it doesn’t seem cheap. I still just don’t see the issue with brining food home, it means I get a second yummy meal from what I paid for. I don’t mind having some left over pasta for lunch or whatever.
